Ikea ELGÅ cabinet is no longer being made so it is hard to find replacement for wire basket holders/sliders. 

Model was made from scratch. Measurements were done with digital caliper and protractor. Modelling was done in Autodesk Fusion for Personal Use.

Print instructions - these worked for me on the first try using MK4S. Other options are probably possible.

  • Material: PETG 
  • Profile: Structural@MK4S
  • Supports: Everywhere, Snug - there are two small parts with 90° degrees overhang
  • Infill: 15%, Gyroid
  • Perimeters: 4

There are two STL files - left and right, orientation is based on the view of person looking towards the cabinet.

Differences from the original part:

  • Two extra screws might be needed per slider as I have replaced original bottom pins with screw holes to keep back flat for easy printing. Not sure if they are really required - original ones are a bit flimsy and seems to be there just to help with part installation. I have used some screws nevertheless. 
  • Slightly different shape than original in some parts - more plastic is used just to keep the model simple. There is no impact on functionality as far as I can tell.
  • Bottom part is a bit extended to provide more material around new screw holes

I have printed both left and right version and used it successfully to replace broken sliders.

Picture with gray part is original for reference - some damage is visible - it is 15+ years old, so good lifetime for plastic.
